Default What do you pay for your mounts?

Just wondering what you normally pay for your mounts. Here in small town Alabama a shoulder mount only runs about $250.00-$300.00.

Cutter I paid $625.00 + 150.00 shipping for my Alberta deer and I have a couple that I have had mounted here in Alabama for around 250 to 300 BUT I can tell you ...I have learned you get what you pay for in a mount ..most all of them look good when you finally get them back but what will they look like in 10 years ... I think the way they have the cape tanned has a lot to do with the cost ....
